SOIL-PIPE VENTEID FITTNG.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Feb. 4, 19H3.

Application ledjanuary 2 2, 1912. 'Serial No. 672,616.

To all whom lt may concern:

Be` it knownthat LlfJosnri-r G. HUss, a citizen of the United States, residing at Minneapolis in the county of Hennepin and State of Minnesota.,` have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Soil-'Pipe Vented Fittings; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

My invention has for its object to provide an improved sanitary fitting especially adapted for vuse in making closet connections with the main soil stack, and also ,to provide a suitable vent for the closet,

To the above ends, the invention consists of the novel construction and arrangement of parts hereinafter described and definedv in the claims.

The improved fitting is designed to form a part of the main soil stack and is located at the ioor line between the walls of a partition. Owing to the limited space in which the improved fitting must Abe located without cutting any of the timbers of the building, I have designed, as an integrally formed entirety, a fitting consisting` of a main soil pipe section, one or more closet connections, and a vent pipe extension for each closet.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein like vcharacters indicate like parts throughout the several views.

Referring to the drawings :-Figure l is a side elevation of the improved fitting and connected parts, with a portion of the building shown in vertical section; Fig. 2 is a plan view of some of the parts shown in Fig. l, on an enlarged scale; Fig. 3 is a vertical section taken on the irregular line 503 x3 of Fig. 2; and Fig. 4 is a horizontal section taken on the line a# x4 of Fig. 3.

The numerals l and 2 indicate 'respectively the floor and the two walls of a partition of a building. Between t-he walls 2 isA located a main soil stack 3, indicated, as shown in Fig. 3 by means of dotted lines. Interposed in the main" soil stack 3 is the vertical sect-ion 4 of the improved fitting. This section 4 forms a part of the main soil stack 3 and its lower end projects below the floor 1. Integrally formed with the intermediate portion of the section 4 is, 4as shown, a pair of substantially horizontally extended bends 5. These bends 5 are, however, given a sufficient gradeto permitl afvk tree discharge therethrough into the section 4.v The outer free ends of the bends 5 extend in opposite directions and project a short distance through the two Walls 2 in j.

positions to receive the discharge ends of the waste discharge of a pair of closets 6 located one on each side of the. walls 2.

As is evident, the soil. pipe section 4 may be formed with one vor more closet connections, as required. The receiving ends of -the closet connections 5 are diametrically opposite one another, and are separated one from the other by means of a vertically extended partition 7. This partition 7 extends toward the soil pipe lsection4 a distance suiiicient to direct the discharge from the closet waste pipes into the soil pipe.

To add to the efficiency of a closet, it is highly desirable to locate the receiving end of the ventpipe as near as possible to the closet trap. To accomplish this result, I have integrallyv formed with the soil pipe section 4 and the closet connections 5, avent pipe extension 8 for each closet 6. 'A horizontally extended partition 9 overlies the vertical partition and separates the vent pipe extensions 8- from the closet connections 5. Each vent pipe extension 8 is in the form of a reverse bend with its receiving end tapping the closet connection 5 adjacent to its receiving or free end. And the discharge-end of each vent pipe extension 8 terminates inv a hubA 10 integrally formed ,with and extending parallel to the soil pipe extension 4. Telescoped into the hubs 10 of the vent pipe extensions 8 are a. pair of vent pipes l1, which at their upper ends,I are connected to a main vent pipe 12. ln some instances, depending on the space available and the shape of the closet connecl tion required, the receiving end of the vent pipe extension 8 may tap the closet connection 5 at its side instead of at its top, as shown in the drawings. f
